Currently, in whatlinkshere, links from redirects are shown indented
as subsets of the redirect, something like:

* Article1
* Article2
* Article3
* Redirect
* * Article4
* * Article5
* Article6
* Article7

Something like this for template links would be an ideal solution, I
think - it'd let us see the template links, which are still useful for
various purposes, whilst keeping them distinct from "real" links. I am
not sure how much more of a logistic hassle this would be, though...
